Experience

1. Module Lead

   IDfy

   Oct 2023 — Present · Mumbai, IN

   As a module lead for the IDfy Labs team, I\'m currently in charge of spearheading 2 projects. One of these is Privy, IDfy\'s new consent governance platform, and the other is IDfy\'s Bank Statement Analyzer.Under these projects I have spearheaded the development of many new products, including, but not limited to:1. Inspect AI - A revolutionary product that will help organizations find gaps in their DPDPA compliance in a matter of a few minutes. The solution was brainstormed by my team from the ground up and is currently awaiting approval on a patent.2. Cookie Manager - India\'s first ever cookie management platform, once again using a novel approach that was brainstormed by our team from the ground up.3. Bank Statement Analyser (also known as the Transaction Intelligence Platform)- IDfy\'s greatly updated bank statement analysis platform, which allows underwriters to analyze applicants\' bank statements to get a more holistic view of the applicants\' spending behavior. This was built to withstand scale, and is currently serving around 240K requests per month at minimal capacity. Uses proprietary machine learning models which help derive maximum insights from bank transactions.Apart from these, I have also- Experimented with fine tuning multiple machine learning models (BERT, DistilBERT, Flair) to solve the problem of deriving intelligence from monetary transactions from bank statements- Helped setup an MLOps pipeline using LabelStudio, Postgres, GCS and Kubernetes jobs that allowed for easy performance monitoring of these models, as well as allowing smooth and effortless updates to them- Led a team of 13 people to help build these projects under strict deadlines- Developed and implemented SOPs and guidelines to improve the team’s processes and align them with industry standards- Provided strategic leadership to team members and established clear, achievable goals to enhance their performance and professional growth.
